LONDON, ENGLAND - OCTOBER 06: Art handlers hold Le Pere, a portrait by artist Marc Chagall of his father, during a press preview at Phillips gallery on October 6, 2022 in London, England. Le PÃ‹re, a portrait by artist Marc Chagall of his father, was owned by a Polish violin maker who survived Auschwitz but it was seized from him and its whereabouts were unknown for many years. When it resurfaced, Chagall reacquired it for himself in 1966 and it went on to be exhibited in the most prominent museums around the world. The French government is taking action to restitute works of art back to the families and descendants of Jewish people whose homes were looted by the Nazis in WWII. Of the 15 works being restituted, Le PÃ‹re is the first to come to auction and is estimated at $6-8 million. It will be sold in New York in November 2022. (Photo by Chris J Ratcliffe/Getty Images)
